They're here!

The Niagara-Wheatfield Central
School District is celebrating the delivery of five new buses to its
Transportation Department.

Thanks to a resident vote that
approved the acquisition of the buses, several deteriorating buses were pulled
off the road and traded in to Leonard Bus Co.

"This has been a long haul," says
Transportation Supervisor Leslie Buczkowski. "We are so glad that the public
realized how much these were needed. I am so excited; you have to peel me off
the wall."

School Business Administrator
Allison Brady added, "This is the beginning of a new plan in place. We plan on
reducing repairs, improving the safety and affect cost savings."

Superintendent Dr. Lynn Marie Fusco couldn't
wait to get on the first bus when it pulled in. "It took us a lot to get these
buses. This is so exciting to know as a district we are moving forward
literally and figuratively. I really believe this is the beginning of good
things in Niagara-Wheatfield," she said.
